I have come a hundred miles, said a minister, to get some of Mr. Moody's spirit. You don't want my spirit, was the reply. What you want is the Spirit of God.

What makes the Dead Sea dead? Because it is all the time receiving, never giving out anything. Why is it that many Christians are cold? Because they are all the time receiving, never giving out anything.
Dwight L. Moody
Faith gives us living joy and dying rest.
Dwight L. Moody
We may sing our hymns and psalms, and offer prayers, but they will be an abomination to God, unless we are willing to be thoroughly straightforward in our daily life.
Dwight L. Moody
When God wants to move a mountain, he does not take a bar of iron, but he takes a little worm. The fact is, we have too much strength. We are not weak enough. It is not our strength that we want. One drop of God's strength is worth more than all the world.
Dwight L. Moody
Right now I'm having so much trouble with D.L. Moody that I don't have time to find fault with the other fellow.
Dwight L. Moody
Lust is the devil's counterfeit for love. There is nothing more beautiful on earth than a pure love and there is nothing so blighting as lust.
Dwight L. Moody
A great many people wonder why it was that Christ did not come at once to Martha and Mary, whom He loved, whenever He heard of their affliction. It was to try them, and it is the same with His dealings toward us. If He seems not to come to us in our affliction, it is only to test us.
Dwight L. Moody
Is there any reason why you should not have faith in God? Has God ever broken one of His promises? I defy any infidel or unbeliever to place a finger on a single promise of God ever made and failed to fulfill.
Dwight L. Moody
Let us expect that God is going to use us. Let us have courage and go forward, looking to God to do great things.
Dwight L. Moody
The impression that a praying mother leaves upon her children is life-long. Perhaps when you are dead and gone your prayer will be answered.
Dwight L. Moody
A great many people are trying to make peace, but that has already been done. God has not left it for us to do all we have to do is to enter into it.
Dwight L. Moody
There is no better evangelist in the world than the Holy Spirit.
Dwight L. Moody
I am glad there are things in the Bible I do not understand. If I could take that book up and read it as I would any other book, I might think I could write a book like that.
Dwight L. Moody
The Gospel of John opens with Jesus Christ in the bosom of God, and closes with the sinner in the bosom of Jesus Christ.
Dwight L. Moody
I know I have a first-rate mind, but that`s no source of pride to me. Intelligent people are a dime a dozen. But I am proud of having character.
Dwight L. Moody
He is the Rock, His work is perfect: For all His ways are judgment: A God of truth and without iniquity, Just and right is He.
Dwight L. Moody
If you pray for bread and bring no basket to carry it, you prove the doubting spirit, which may be the only hindrance to the boon you ask.
Dwight L. Moody
A good many preachers say I am lowering the pulpit. I am glad I am. I am trying to get it down to the level of men's hearts. If I wanted to hit Chicago I would not put the cannon on the top of this building and fire into the air. Too many preachers fire into the air.
Dwight L. Moody
Next to the wonder of seeing my Savior will be, I think, the wonder that I made so little use of the power of prayer.
Dwight L. Moody
I hunted all through the four Gospels trying to find one of Christ's funeral sermons, but I couldn't find any. I found He broke up every funeral He ever attended! Death couldn't exist where He was.
Dwight L. Moody
